She looked at Lin Yu, as if hoping to get confirmation from him.

Lin Yu remained silent, just thinking in his heart.

If Lin Yu rode away on horseback at this time, what would Li Cunzhong and Li Cunxiao do?

Why did they set up a teahouse here and only leave two people here?

Could it be just to say hello?

Lin Yu couldn't figure out what they were trying to do, but he didn't intend to stop testing them.

But it's still daytime now, so they will definitely not reveal any flaws.

"You guys stay here. I'm going to check out the situation around here. I may not be back for a while. Please take care of yourselves."

Lin Yu just left these words, then got on his horse and left.

Bai Wuchang and Lu Linxuan both stayed. Since Bai Wuchang didn't get any permission, she could only sit at the table without saying a word. Even if Lu Linxuan poured her tea, she didn't dare to drink it.

Zhang Zifan sat in his seat, constantly thinking about what decision Tongwenguan might make now.

After Lin Yu left, everyone showed a different attitude.

Zhang Zifan's gaze would occasionally look inside the teahouse, and from time to time, the same unusually flickering gazes would be heard from inside the teahouse.

It was almost night.

"It looks like we'll probably have to stay here today. I'll go talk to the store owner."

Zhang Zifan then stood up and walked into the teahouse.

His ninth uncle and tenth uncle were sitting on chairs watching him.

"Is there anything I can help you with, sir?"

Li Cunzhong spoke loudly.

"It's getting late. I want to stay here for one night. What's your price..."

Zhang Zifan also responded loudly.

Part of their conversation can be heard by outsiders, but most of the content of the conversation cannot be leaked.

"Uncle Jiu, what exactly are your plans? Why are you here?"

Zhang Zifan suddenly lowered his voice again.

"My dear nephew, the Holy Lord knows the purpose of that man, but we have no intention of letting Li Xingyun go. We came here to kill this man."

The person Li Cunzhong was talking about was obviously Lin Yu who had already left.
Zhang Zifan was instinctively shocked when he heard this.

Because how did Tongwenguan know about Lin Yu, and how did they know Lin Yu's purpose.

"Idle. Your other uncles are on their way, but because the intelligence was given to them in a hurry, they don't have time to make arrangements."

"My mission is to hold him back here. I didn't expect you to have already established contact with him. That's good. You can tell us his movements at any time."

Li Cunzhong patted Zhang Zifan on the shoulder.

"Also, nephew, tell me, why did he leave so suddenly? Did he notice anything?"

Li Cunzhong asked again.

"No, he was just observing the surroundings. This person is very cautious. I can fully feel his cautiousness during this period of time."

Zhang Zifan said in a low voice.

"That's good. I was worried that something might go wrong with us and he might notice something, which would then ruin all our efforts."

Li Cunzhong breathed a sigh of relief.

Based on Zhang Zifan's understanding of Uncle Jiu, it was probably because he felt the pressure brought to him by Lin Yu.

Otherwise he probably wouldn't have said that.

The previous attempt made Li Cunzhong feel a little scared.

"Uncle Jiu, I still don't quite understand how Tongwenguan knew this person's information and his purpose."

Zhang Zifan couldn't help but ask.

"You don't know? If you don't know, it's better not to ask."

"And I can't tell you."

Li Cunzhong was slightly surprised, then he put away his expression and turned away.

. . . . . .

Li Cunyi was walking on the way up the mountain. He was the fifth among the Thirteen Guardians. He left Tongwenguan many years ago because of a disagreement with the Holy Lord Li Siyuan.

Since then, he has been wandering around the world, liking to drink and always carrying a wine jug with him.

Although he had always ignored the internal situation of Tongwenguan, for some unknown reason, the plan of Tongwenguan even reached him this time.

Li Siyuan, the holy leader of Tongwenguan, wrote to him personally, hoping that he would cooperate with the actions of Tongwenguan.

So Li Cun Yi came here out of curiosity to see what was going on.

According to the instructions in the letter, he would wait in a teahouse for the target to appear and capture him when necessary.

Li Cun Yi was walking leisurely when he suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He turned around suddenly, but in the split second he realized someone was approaching him, he had already tried his best to react.

But he was still a step too slow. His throat was suddenly strangled and a feeling of suffocation came over him.

Li Cunyi couldn't help but panic.

He suddenly began to realize a possibility: his elder brother was not satisfied with having complete control over Tongwenguan and even wanted to kill him, Li Cunyi.

So the purpose of setting up such an ambush to lure Li Cun Yi here was to kill him here.

But the other party only controlled Li Cun Yi and did not intend to exert further force.

"Who are you? Why are you here? Are you from Tongwenguan?"

The other person's voice was cold, and half of his face was hidden in the darkness.

Li Cun Yi wanted to see his face clearly and wanted to know who he was in the martial arts world.

With such level of skills, it is impossible for him to remain unknown.

But even if he saw it clearly, it would be meaningless, because there was no portrait of Lin Yu in the letter that Li Cunyi received.

"You are not Big Brother's man."

However, after hearing what the other party said, Li Cun Yi was able to understand some of the information.

"Since you called me Big Brother, if I remember correctly, among the three major forces, the one that likes to use this kind of seniority the most is Tongwenguan."

Lin Yu's voice gradually became colder.

"No, no, no, strictly speaking, I am not from Tongwenguan."

Li Cunyi's internal force circulated in his body. He fought against Lin Yu's power, not to break free, but to give himself a chance to speak.

Li Cun Yi realized that the other party's strength was definitely not simple, and he even had to spend a lot of effort just to speak.

Li Cunyi suddenly understood why his relationship with Li Siyuan was not very good, but Li Siyuan still sent him a letter in the end.

"This guy doesn't seem like a human being at all. Just confronting him like this makes me feel extremely stressed."

Li Cunyi thought to himself.

"Keep talking."

The other party seemed interested.

Li Cunyi finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. At least on the surface, the other party was still willing to listen to him.

At least this life has been saved temporarily.

"I used to be a member of Tongwenguan, but later I left Tongwenguan. I am here now only because Tongwenguan needs my help."

"I don't know the purpose of Tongwenguan. I came here just to satisfy my curiosity."

"The Tongwenguan is planning to kill someone, and almost all of the Thirteen Guardians have been mobilized." Li Cunyi said it all in one breath.

"What kind of person is worthy of such a big fight at Tongwenguan?"

The other raised an eyebrow.

"I don't know, but I heard that he was very young and even killed the Hades Emperor all by himself."

Li Cunyi said.

"Not many people in the martial arts world know about this matter. Even though Tongwenguan has all-powerful connections, it is impossible for them to have such spies inside Xuanming Sect."

"The bad guys won't tell anyone about this, but those who know about it and tell others don't care at all."

"only one."

The other party just thought about it for a moment and quickly made a judgment.

"The bad commander, Yuan Tiangang."

The other party said again.

Li Cun Yi was suddenly stunned. Since the other party could explain it so clearly, it was as if he had personally experienced what happened inside the Xuanming Sect.

"You wouldn't be... that target, would you?"

Li Cunyi's voice was very low.

There was even a slight tremor in his voice.

"I am Lin Yu. I have a name, not a target."

After Lin Yu rode away on horseback during the day, he really observed the situation around him, but there was indeed nothing unusual. Then in the evening, he turned around and observed the situation in the teahouse from a distance.

Up to now, no disturbance has been noticed, but suddenly an opportunity arises.

Because he noticed Li Cunyi's arrival and he was staggering when he walked, Lin Yu did not initially connect him with the people from Tongwenguan.

I thought he was just an ordinary old man. After all, he didn't have the temperament of a master of the Tongwenguan at all.

This is why Lin Yu did not kill Li Cunyi directly at the beginning. He did not expect to uncover the internal situation of Tongwenguan.

"Those guys are indeed from Tongwenguan. Also, let me ask you, does Zhang Zifan know about this plan?"

Lin Yu asked again.

"He probably doesn't know. The order was issued very urgently. If he was outside, he probably wouldn't receive it in time."

Li Cunyi said softly.

"Well then, what you need to do next is to analyze the identities, appearances, and strengths of the Thirteen Protectors for me one by one."

Lin Yu patted Li Cunyi on the shoulder.

In the teahouse, Lu Linxuan finally took a bath. She had fulfilled her wish. Although the conditions were simple, Lu Linxuan tried to be as fast as possible.

And let Bai Wuchang guard outside. Bai Wuchang is now trustworthy because she only obeys orders.

Lu Linxuan put on her clothes. The nights in this place were very cold, so she put on her coat and stretched.

"I never thought that one of the Black and White Impermanence of the Xuanming Sect would die, and the other would become a complete slave."

"But there is a law of cause and effect in this world. If those who died at your hands knew the life you are living now, they would probably laugh out loud in their graves."

A man suddenly appeared in front of the teahouse.

He sat at the table while talking.

He looked like a scholar, dressed in pure white, holding a folding fan. He did have the temperament of a scholar, but at this moment he seemed to speak with sarcasm.

Although it was not targeted at Lu Linxuan, it was targeted at Bai Wuchang.

Bai Wuchang had no expression on her face and didn't even answer. She just stood in front of Lu Linxuan.

"It's just like a doll, it's meaningless."

The man unfolded his folding fan and covered half of his face.

His eyes swept across the entire teahouse, as if he was looking for something.

However, the teahouse was so small that he didn't find the person he wanted to find.

"Hey, who are you? Why are you talking to me without permission? Don't you know that what you said is very annoying?"

Lu Linxuan pointed at this man, feeling indignant.

When it comes to Bai Wuchang, Lin Yu really just treats her as a slave.

As for the others, they didn't care at all. This was true for Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan.

But the only one who truly empathizes with Bai Wuchang is Lu Linxuan.

Even Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian, they had heard about what Heibai Wuchang had done in the past, so they did not feel sorry for his current situation.

Only Lu Linxuan felt that Bai Wuchang was pitiful.

Bai Wuchang's heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if she could strongly feel her own beating heart at that moment.

It is a symbol of being human and also the dignity of being human.

"Me? I'm just a guest passing by. I came here to drink tea. I can barely be considered a man of the world, and I have heard of the past of the Black and White Impermanence."

He put away his folding fan and shouted towards the teahouse.

"Oh, sir, you are really late, but don't worry, the tea shop you want to drink is available here."

Li Cunzhong walked out of the gate in time.

If Lin Yu were here, he would be able to clearly sense that something was wrong.

As soon as the man spoke, Li Cunzhong came out from behind the door.

It was as if Li Cunzhong had been waiting behind the door, watching everything, just waiting for this man to shout.

But Lu Linxuan didn't feel anything unusual at all. She snorted coldly and was about to turn back.

Bai Wuchang took Lu Linxuan's hand and pinched her wrist.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Lu Linxuan asked in a low voice.

Lu Linxuan noticed that Bai Wuchang's eyes were fixed on this scholar and he had no intention of looking away.

"It can't be that you have a crush on him, this rude guy?"

Lu Linxuan said again.

Bai Wuchang suddenly turned around to look at Lu Linxuan, then felt relieved.

She just wanted to remind Lu Linxuan that something was wrong with this person, but Lu Linxuan looked like he didn't understand at all.

Bai Wuchang realized the difficulty of reminding her, and couldn't help but give up at this point.

At this time, Zhang Zifan just came out from behind the door. When he saw the scholar, he was stunned.

"Everyone I meet is a friend. I am a scholar who travels far and wide. We should enjoy this beautiful night together."

"Friend, why don't you come and have a chat."

The scholar extended his hand toward Zhang Zifan.

Zhang Zifan swallowed his saliva.

Lu Linxuan didn't have a good impression of the scholar, so he took Bai Wuchang and left.

As for whether Zhang Zifan was willing to talk, Lu Linxuan didn't care at all.

Even after Lu Linxuan turned and left, Zhang Zifan still seemed hesitant.

"What's wrong? Let me see. You two are very similar. You should have some good topics to talk about."

Li Cunzhong also joined in.

Zhang Zifan glanced around, gritted his teeth and sat down. (End of this chapter)
